A test crushing Of rock was made at
the Orc Elmo mine, Nevada county, CAL,
and on Saturday last It was cleaned up.
The rock was taken principally from the
shaft during the sinking Of the third

A correspondent at Dos Cabezas, Ari-

everywhere, there is a threatened des-
truction of the whole cattle interests by
drought. We have had three dry sum
mers, and this threatens to be by far the
worst Of all.
Oliver & Co.. Of the Bonanza mine, in
Sonora, took out over 300 pounds weight
of gold last week, including a piece Of
solid gold of 80 pounds, and are still
taking it out. They cleaned up last

A SEA LIKE AN EMsaALD.

Professor W. X. Brooks, who accom-.
panied the scientific expedition sent to
the Bahamas by the Johns Hopkins Uni
versity, writes as follows: ''0ur pilot
steered us safely through the crooked
inlet between Whale Key and No-Name
Key into the inner sound. Here we saw
for the first time that intensely green sea
which has been SO frequently mentioned
by voyagers among coral islands. This
vivid color soon became more familiar,
but never lost its novelty, and it still
holds its place as the most brilliant and
characteristic feature Of this highly
colored landscape. The water is so per-
fectly pure and clear that small objects,
like shells and star6sh, are visible on the
pure-white coral sand at depth of fifty
or sixty feet, and the sunlight which is
reflected from the white bottom gives to
the water vivid green luster which is
totally unlike anything in our familiar
conception of water. The whole surface
of the sound seemed to be illuminated by
an intense green phosphorescent light,
aud it looked more like the surface Of a
gigantic polished crystal of beryl than
water. The sky was perfectly clear and
cloudless, and overhead it was of deep
blue color, but near the horizon the blue
was SO completely eclipsed by the vivid
green Of the water that the complement
AIRY color was brought out and the blue
was changed to lurid pink as intense as
that OF November sunset. The white
foam which drifted by the vessel on the
green water appeared as red as carmine
and l afterward found in q voyage
through the sounds in a schooner that
the sides Of the vessel seemed to have
thin coat Of rcse-colored paint when seen
over the rail against the brilliant green
Baltimore Sun.

THE BOOM.

EVERY dog has his day." is a time
worn but still it is a very suggestive
quotation. We have been quietly
watching the progress of the boom in
California, until it has marched over the
State to be caught up by the people OF
Oregon and be carried onward to the Co.
lumbia river. Nevadans have no doubt
felt tinge Of jealousy and have wondered
why they should have been so complete.
ly ignored. This State can offer as good,
and in many respects, much better in
ducements to the settler and land specu.
lstor than can either California or Oregon.
Circumstances have simply favored them.
The time has not yet come for the Ne
vada boom, but it will come and that
too, in good substantial shape. There
was time when the great American was
prominently depicted on the map and
was regarded as barren waste The
boom reached It, however, and it was
soon converted from desert to the gar.
den spot Of Kansas. There will be q
great reaction take place in California,
and when it does Nevada will receive
her share Of attention and it will be Of q
permanent nature. 1t will not flush up
brilliantly for time and then die away.
The change will be steady and continual
The possibilities Of our State are great,
and we must wait patiently until they
attract the attention they richly deserve.
Those who leave this State to seek
green fields" elsewhere, will ultimately
return to find them in Nevada. = Nevada

In Mexico, writes a correspondent
from that country, the customs are en-.
tircly different from ours. Gentlemen,
Immediately after being introduced to
ladies, call them by their first or given
name. without madam or miss, be they
married or single. And when a lady
marries she does not take her husbands
name. Instead Of being his equal or
life partner, she is rather known as a
piece Of his property, as the horse or his
carriage. For instance, if her name was
Anita Nunez and she marries Mr.. Jose,
she is then known as Anita Nunez de
Jose, or in other words, Jose's Annie, or
.Tose's house or other piece Of property.
Mexican girls generally marry very
young. Being kept in the house always
like prisoners behind iron bars, and
knowing nothing Of the liberty and plea
saro OF society, their only escape from
jail is marriage; then they enjoy little,
very little, more liberty. There is much
dressing at balls, the theatre and opera,
bnt very few pretty street dresses, per.
haps because they are 30 seldom on the
street. I have seen ladies Of great
wealth on the street in faded calico
dresses, or in room wrappers with shawl
thrown over their shoulders. It is very
rare that they enter a store. If they
want shopping done they send servant,
who prices the goods and sends them to
the house for the lady's inspection.
This course causes much stealing on the
part Of the servants and very little sa.
tisfaction on the part Of the purchasers.
Never have sent for simple article
that the servant did not retain part Of
the money, even when sending for =
dimes worth Of nuts for pet squirrel.
And ~ the merchants have FIVE or six
prices it is impossible to regulate mat
